Cómics para el aula La narrativa (story telling en ingleś) o capacidad para contar historias o expresar ideas es una capacidad fundamental a adquirir por los alumnos, independientemente de la asignatura o nivel educativo. Dado la orientación visual de los niños y jóvenes, acostumbrados a repartir su ocio entre pantallas, el formato texto se les puede quedar corto a la hora de expresarse. Adaptado a las diferentes edades, el cómic ofrece un discurso visual, fácilmente comprensible, que lo hace un recurso estimulante y ameno para la práctica y mejora de la comprensión lectora, la introducción o resumen de temas, o para realizar representaciones esquemáticas de la realidad. Es también una atractiva herramienta de expresión que permite desarrollar la creatividad. Su utilización didáctica, por tanto, es enriquecedora, siempre y cuando se tenga en cuenta la edad y madurez de los alumnos, el nivel de complejidad del material utilizado y su relación con los contenidos curriculares.

Edu 2.0 9 Characteristics Of 21st Century Learning The label of “21st Century learning” is vague, and is an idea that we here at TeachThought like to take a swing at as often as possible, including: –weighing the magic of technology with its incredible cost and complexity –underscoring the potential for well thought-out instructional design –considering the considerable potential of social media platforms against its apparent divergence from academic learning Some educators seek out the ideal of a 21st century learning environment constantly, while others prefer that we lose the phrase altogether, insisting that learning hasn’t changed, and good learning looks the same whether it’s the 12th or 21st century. At TeachThought, we tend towards the tech-infused model, but do spend time exploring the limits and challenges of technology, the impact of rapid technology change, and carefully considering important questions before diving in head-first.

Algo más que Matemáticas Aunque el diseño curricular actual mantiene la tradicional división en áreas para las etapas de Infantil y Primaria y en materias para Secundaria, la investigación pedagógica aboga, siempre que sea posible, por un enfoque interdisciplinar de los contenidos. En los proyectos eTwinning es frecuente encontrar trabajos en los que participan profesores y se desarrollan actividades de distintas áreas/materias, lo que demuestra el interés creciente entre los docentes por esta metodología interdisciplinar. Dadas las características de esta acción, son numerosas las ocasiones en las que se decide trabajar en una lengua extranjera y, por tanto, se desarrollan tareas con objetivos y contenidos de esta asignatura junto con los de otra/s. Sin embargo, resulta más difícil encontrar actividades intercurriculares en las que estén presentes las matemáticas, por lo que destacamos algunas de las que hemos visto entre los proyectos presentados a los Premios Nacionales eTwinning 2012:

Tips for Single Women, 1938 Taylor I completely agree with you. And I’m 23, so I’m not archaic. I think the problem is that people are reading these tips with the preconceived notion that they are outdated because of the way it is written and the 50′s pictures, and because they feel that it’s not fair for women to have to be like this but men don’t. In reality, men were very courteous back then, and treated women with respect and romance. There are some things that are just plain courteous. Try reversing these tips and applying them to men. Most of you women would run, am I right? Instead of don’t show emotion, change that to: “Don’t burst into tears when your ex’s song plays.” These are general tips, just like the tips you find in today’s magazines. As for the conversation tips, simply think of it this way: “Talk about things that you think you’re both interested in. Let’s all be a bit more courteous
